Team Form

JS Hercules are in dreadful form, failing to win any of their last five matches (D, D, L, L, L). They managed only two draws — a 0-0 at Huima/Urho and a 2-2 home draw with Vaajakoski — but suffered heavy defeats: 0-7 at GBK Kokkola, 1-2 at FF Jaro II, and a 1-5 home loss to Vaasa VPS Akatemia. Defensive frailties are evident, with 15 goals conceded in those five games.

JBK Jakobstads Bollklubb’s recent form is mixed but significantly better (L, W, L, W, D). They recorded a 4-2 home win over Narpes Kraft and a 3-0 home victory against SJK Akatemia 2, along with a 1-1 draw at TP-47. Losses came at GBK Kokkola (0-2) and Huima/Urho (2-3). JBK have scored 10 goals in their last five outings, showing far more attacking threat than their hosts.

Head-to-Head Record

The overall head-to-head record in this fixture heavily favors the home side historically, with 12 home wins, 3 draws, and 4 away wins. However, recent meetings tell a different story. In the last five encounters, JBK Jakobstads Bollklubb have won three, with one draw and zero wins for JS Hercules. The most recent clash on May 16, 2026, saw JBK win 3-0 at home. JS Hercules have not beaten JBK since 2023, and the trend strongly points to another away success.

Win Probability: JS Hercules or JBK?

Based on the available data — recent form, head-to-head results, and the home/away factor — we calculate the following win probabilities:

• JS Hercules win: 25%
• Draw: 25%
• JBK Jakobstads Bollklubb win: 50%

JS Hercules’ home advantage is offset by their terrible run of results and defensive issues. JBK’s superior form and dominance in recent H2H meetings make them the clear favorite. The 50% probability reflects their strong chance to take all three points.
